Kevin Morosky is a Virgo, film director, and creative. He's a community leader, a change maker, an author and a fascinating podcast guest. In this episode we discuss: A love letter to Black women Being black and queer and how that inspired Kevin's first book How life influences the creative process Pocc & the community around it The influence of Biggie Smalls How to spot bad briefs from brands Kevin Morosky Kevin's career began in film photography, with his work seeing him published in the likes of Dazed, ID, and Vogue to name just a few - if you bought mags in the early 10s, you probably saw his work inside. Aware of the fact he was often brought onto advertising projects as a diversity hire, with little say in the actual content he was shooting, Kevin worked to get on the other side of the ad industry. He quickly became a creative known for pursuing authentic - and often humorous - storytelling that felt inclusive and insightful, challenging the norms of the industry. His dedication to the culture paid off; as well as co-founding Pocc, a Black British Business Awards-nominated creative network that champions Black and Brown voices in advertising, Kevin's also Jury President of the D&AD New Blood Awards 2021. As a film director, Kevin's portfolio spans both commercial and personal work. He frequently self-directs his ad campaigns, which has seen him work for the likes of Samsung, O2, Vodafone, and Lush. Recent personal works include a quintet of short films (Lungs, Laundry, Moon, Homes and Quantum) examining what it means to be Black in 2020 Britain, and Orphans: a Queen's thoughts at Christmas starring Susie Wokoma. Kevin is currently self-financing More Time, a workplace mockumentary, and is developing his first feature with the BBC.

POEM steht für "Product Ownership Evolution Model" wurde 2017 von den beiden Produktwerkern Oliver Winter und Tim Klein erfunden und entwickelt. Es ist ein Modell, welches hilft mehr Product Ownership in einer Organisation zu etablieren. Es unterstützt dabei, die aktuell gelebte und zukünftig angestrebte Ausgestaltung der Product Ownership, vor allem im Sinne der Entscheidungsverantwortung, zu visualisieren, zu diskutieren und so gemeinsam weiterzuentwickeln. Auf diesen Ergebnissen aufbauend kann das Modell genutzt werden, um Verantwortlichkeiten für die Product Ownership zwischen den Rollen verbindlich(er) zu vereinbaren. Letztlich kann so auch ein möglicher Coaching-Bedarf der handelnden Personen/Rollen identifiziert werden, den Scrum Master und/oder Agile Coaches abdecken müssen. Oliver Winter und Tim Klein, die beiden Erfinder des Models, beleuchten in dieser Episode noch mal die Entstehungsgeschichte von POEM und welches Problem sie dazu führte, die Fragestellung von Entscheidungsverantwortung expliziter machen zu wollen. Die beiden erklären die Idee hinter dem Tool und erläutern Aufbau und Mechanik des Modells. Weiterhin beleuchten Sie seine Stärken und Schwächen und geben insbesondere Tipps und Hinweise, wie man POEM als Hilfsmittel in der Diskussion besonders effektiv einsetzen kann. So können insbesondere Scrum Master, Agile Coaches und Organisationsentwickler:innen - aber natürlich auch Product Owner - das Modell wirkungsvoll einsetzen. Download des POEM Templates inkl. Erklärungen zur Anwendung hier: produktwerker.de/poem/ In dieser Episode empfohlene Podcast Folgen: - Organisatorische Schulden beeinflussen deinen Erfolg als Product Owner - Welche Aufgaben gehören zur Product Owner Rolle?

If you're unfamiliar with Santa Fe Opera's Pueblo Opera Program (POP), take a quick journey back in time for part one of this conversation. Go ahead; we'll wait. In it, you'll meet Renee Roybal and Claudene A. Martinez, both members of Pueblo of San Ildefonso. The pair recall the early days of POP and the formation of the Pueblo Opera Cultural Council (POCC). Now that you're sufficiently caught up, join Andrea Fellows Fineberg as her time machine co-pilot Kyle Gray, SFO's Manager of Community Relations & Government Affairs, wraps up the conversation (for now.)  Renee and Claudene return to share recollections of their early collaborative interactions with legendary director Peter Sellars in conjunction with the 2018 world premiere of Doctor Atomic. Then Sonja and Seth Martinez, Renee's daughter and grandson, share memories of the SFO visits that shaped their affinity for opera. The discussion concludes with a roundtable wishlist of future POP-lead initiatives. “I definitely remember paying attention to the weather,” Sonja laughs, recalling stormy visits to the outdoor opera house before its much-anticipated roof upgrade. The unexpected theatrics only added to the excitement of attending world-class opera in her own backyard. What could compare to opera amid wild thunderstorms? The thrill of watching family and friends perform on that same majestic stage. “It was very exciting!” says Seth of the corn dance that POCC created as part of Doctor Atomic. He hopes SFO continues to integrate Indigenous traditions into its future seasons (along with more comedy, operas about space, and significant historical events). Meanwhile, his mother envisions expanded opportunities for Indigenous children to explore performance- and stagecraft-based endeavors. POP and POCC ensure that that future is within reach.

All aboard the Key Change time machine for a two-part trip! On this half of the journey, we toggle back to the origins of a beloved community-based program and then forward to celebrate its exciting expansion. 2023 will mark the 50th anniversary of the Pueblo Opera Program, lovingly known around the Santa Fe Opera as POP.  Key Change commemorates this momentous event by passing the mic to colleague Kyle Gray, SFO's Manager of Community Relations & Government Affairs. Kyle and his guests discuss the POP legacy and Pueblo Opera Cultural Council (POCC), which blossomed out of an artistic collaboration between legendary director Peter Sellars and SFO's Indigenous neighbors during the 2018 production of Doctor Atomic — with guests Renee Roybal, Pueblo of San Ildefonso, and Claudene A. Martinez, Pueblo of San Ildefonso. “I'm 63 years old, and I've been going to and enjoying opera since I was a teenager,” Renee says. For nearly 50 years, POP has introduced thousands of Native American children to the grand adventure of opera. Both women have fond memories of inspiring behind-the-scenes tours, inventive performances, and rides on plush buses to the most anticipated social event of the summer.  With POP's legacy secure, the women have focused on POCC, which features members of the San Ildefonso Pueblo, Santa Clara Pueblo, and Tesuque Pueblo. POCC seeks to foster the Indigenous tradition of cross-cultural hospitality. Claudene says the Doctor Atomic experience was a meaningful beginning for the advisory. “I think that's how POCC [will] continue to work with the opera, on other future moments that we could get involved in and educate.” FEATURING Andrea Fellows Fineberg - Host, Key Change Kyle Gray, Santa Fe Opera Manager of Community Relations & Government Affairs Renee Roybal, Pueblo of San Ildefonso Claudene A.

I struggled with a name for this Podcast. I feel blessed that Battlefield MO retired teacher and new Author, Debra Waldon Davis drove all the way out to my farm to Co-Host this one with me. What can I say? Missouri is hell bent on making Missouri the Dumb and Dumber state, so much for the Show Me State. In this Podcast Debra and Cass discuss the books that the Nixa Mo School is now tasked to review and restrict and or ban 16 books. And while I state numerous times that I was unable to read the books prior to the Podcast, I checked with 2 online book review sites to get the gist of what the books are about. And while discussing the list of books, Debra and I created an acronym for the group of People, organizations, churches or cults who felt that these 16 books were just beyond acceptable to be see, heard about and or read, 17 POCC (pronounced poke). Ya'll know that you can reach out to me at: comingoutofthekitchenpod@gmail.com or COOK'nPolitics@gmail.com to share your opinions and or thoughts about my podcasts.

8:00 AM Tania Santiago and Ramon Alayo about their show opening Dec. 4-6 at Dance Mission in San Francisco. 8:30 AM On the 40th Anniversary of the Murder of Black Panther Party Chairman Fred Hampton Sr., along with Mark Clark, we speak to his wife, Akua Njeri, December 4th Committee, and son, Chairman Fred Hampton Jr., POCC, from Chicago about GROUND ZERO. 9 AM Baba Ken Okulolo speaks on the annual Musical Night in Africa at Ashkenaz Music and Dance Center, Saturday, Dec. 5, 2009 in Berkeley.

written 4 POCC 1/15/09 Huey P. Newton's name, and more importantly, his history of resistance and struggle, is little more than a mystery for many younger people in their 20's. The name and works of a third rate rapper is more familiar to the average Black youth, and that's hardly surprising given the failure of the public school system. For the public school system is invested in ignorance, and Huey P. Newton was a rebel -- and more, a Black Revolutionary. Inspired by the civil rights movement and the violent attacks on Blacks trying to vote, Huey felt a bolder, more radical stance was needed. At the age of 24, he co-founded the Black Panther Party, and the group expanded by leaps and bounds. Begun in Oct. 1966, in 3 years it had grown to over 40 chapters and branches across the country, with an international section in Algiers, North Africa. Dedicated to the principles of Black self-defense and Black freedom, the Party became the foremost radical group of the era, with a wealth of supporters and enemies. Chief among enemies was the US government, which, in the words of the FBI's head, J. Edgar Hoover, considered it "the greatest threat to national security." For many thousands of Black youth, the rebelliousness of the Party spoke to their spirits more truly than did the peaceful resistance represented by Dr. Martin Luther King. Huey was not a pacifist, and neither were millions of Black people. But Huey, for all his brilliance, flair and resolve, was only human, and as the saying goes, 'to err is human.' Under attack from without and within, the party made missteps that contributed to it demise by the early 1980's. But it is the best of Huey P. Newton that survives -- the bold soldier, the Minister of Defense, the thinker and writer -- who gave his best to the Black Freedom movement; who inspired millions of others to stand. --(c) 1/15/09 maj
